Ah, dryvit. missed that part. was imagining a sign cabinet you needed to cover. Anywho, I've used Phototex's high-tack to adhere to dryvit temporarily BUT it definitely has that "banner-look". You could "fancy-it-up" a bit with some hand-trimming (phototex doesn't cut too well on a plotter)...

Phototex has an opaque version. Quick print & install, and comes in 100' rolls.

actually, this sounds like it could do the trick! VectorDoctor to the rescue! (reposting quote since I like adding to my postcount) :smile:

The limiting factor is AI's memory management. And file size on disk doesn't mean anything. An 18 or 22 MB JPEG can easily expand to 2GB uncompressed and then you already break AI's measly 2GB limit. no way around it except to possibly open the .pdf in Acrobat Pro (or possibly photoshop)...

just throwing it out there, but, hopefully your county/city will even allow such a thing. half the towns I put up graphics in Wisconsin, allow only a certain % of window coverage per Fire Code.

don't forget about permits, UL listing, and proper installation! I only say this because your website leads me to believe that you have not dabbled in this kind of sign-work before :) +1 find someone local. shipping is a budget-killer. much easier to simply go pick it up yourself.

o wow, same font as the movie poster! thanks!

scanned business card, and i'm horrible at matching script fonts :( any ideas?

my fans once crapped out on me, on my 160sp, because I had failed to notice my ink pump/drain lines had rotted and were dripping ink all-over the cables within the printer. disconnected, cleaned the cables/connections, and everything fired-back-up again like a charm.

you should be charging him extra... for saving his window from being shattered by whatever it is that did the gouging.

VHBtape & silicone works just fine for me! if they don't want fasteners, then its up to them to deal with adhesive left on brick after removal...

calendared overlaminates will do that if you have your tension set high, especially with a laminator that has heat-assist.

+1 clean everything. soak your heads. clean everything again. ...and repeat

greetings from just north of the border! I'll definitely keep you in mind for any projects that require your type of handiwork :)

http://www.signs101.com/forums/showthread.php?64145-need-your-input I like making these T-Frames for easy-to-install MDO signs. No digging necessary, and completely re-usable. Pics/Diagram/Description in that thread, but the legs are basically a "T" of 4x4's supported with 45degree 2x4's...

never hurts to start your week by printing the test plots within the clean printheads menu, and check for missing nozzles before it becomes noticeable in your product. $100 for a printhead, and a minute of your time, is nothing compared to the hundreds of $$$'s it costs to print a vehicle wrap...

about 8-12 liters of ink here. the machine has automatically told us to change on some, other times it was just noticeable defects in prints that extra cleanings would not correct ...usually after a head strike/media jam, but so far never before i've put at least 6 carts of ink thru it.

:Welcome:2:signs101:

who is this job through? the other sign company or the doc himself? sounds like you explained the scope of the work required to your client but your client promised their client a brand-new sign and are leaving you to hang for touching the project.
